Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds

The tide rose and fell, and faint cheers sounded in the distance.

Adjutant Myron sat on the beach, feeling cold.

The captain and Sir Taize brought most of the elites on the ship into the rift valley, but there were still more than 100 elves among the scouts at the three outposts on the island and the people guarding the rift valley. This was the greatest reliance that Adjutant Myron was confident in supporting the Wayne Wings… However, all of this was blasted clean by the enchanted crossbow bolts that fell from the sky.

He could not understand how the other party could activate the infusion power of the crossbow under the anti-magic domain of the Holy Seal Islands, which led to a tragic outcome.

He stared blankly at the beach.

More than a hundred warriors worked together to kill their way back to the Wayne Wings. Their auras were like a rainbow as they swore to use the blood of the Goethe people to wash away the humiliation of tonight. However, now, only a dozen or so people had escaped ashore with him.

The elf looked at all of this in despair, wishing that everything in front of him was a dream.

These casualties were all because of his decision.

To a commander, it was simply heart-wrenching torture.

Adjutant Myron’s eyes were red and his blood surged. He was only a small adjutant with great prestige and talent. He had hurriedly taken over the command and fought like this in the first battle. His side had suffered heavy losses. The Wayne Wings had completely fallen into the hands of the enemy. This was the eternal shame of the Royal Navy.

He trembled and held the hilt of his sword, wanting to draw his sword and commit suicide. However, when he thought of killing himself here, his corpse would inevitably be discovered by the Goethe people. He might be hung at the bow and show off—he was unwilling to suffer this humiliation after death.

With this in mind, Adjutant Myron slowly stood up.

The other elves who had escaped were also lying on the beach in a daze, looking at him. Someone asked, “Mr. Myron, where are you going?”

Adjutant Myron stopped for a moment and said in a low voice, “I made a huge mistake and killed so many warriors. I should have died, but if I die here, my corpse will inevitably be humiliated by the Goethe people… I want to return to that rift valley and find the captain and Sir Taize to see what happened there. Even if I die there and die with my compatriots, it’s better than dying in the hands of the Goethe people…”

“As for you…”

He glanced at the dozen or so companions who had escaped death and said softly, “If the battle fails, we’ll disband on the spot. You can do whatever you want… I’m going to apologize to the captain and Sir Taize.”

With that, he left these elves behind and quickly walked deeper into the island.

It was as if he was escaping.

The elves on the beach looked at each other and then at the Wayne Wings in the sea with complicated expressions. They suddenly laughed bitterly in unison.

Then, he silently got up and walked in the direction the adjutant had left.

At the same time.

In the depths of the rift valley.

Captain Estes and Sir Taize were still alive.

However, they were fighting a bloody battle.

Beast roars surrounded them one after another. In the shadows, the lion-like black beasts were accumulating strength. Their numbers were endless, almost endless.

The two subordinates who had previously had conflict held longbows and fought the enemy side by side. They were protected by the elf soldiers and shot sharp arrows, continuously killing the black beasts that rushed up.

“Captain, we don’t have many arrows left.”

Sir Taize shot an arrow and adjusted his breathing. He said calmly, “There’s no doubt that this is a trap. The ruins of the ancient civilization won’t be built at the entrance of such a place. That’s only bait.”

The captain shot an arrow and nailed a black beast to the ground. He said indifferently, “I know.” 𝗳𝐫𝘦e𝘸𝗲𝚋𝓃𝚘v𝘦𝘭.𝑐𝒐m

Sir Taize recalled what had happened earlier and still felt dazed and shocked. Even if this was a trap, the shocking scene he had seen earlier still shook his heartstrings. The scene that appeared on that strange light screen made him afraid, jealous, and yearning.

Previously, in order to fight for credit, he and Captain Estes had decided to enter this rift valley together. At first, they were still careful and carried out the possible sneak attack of the Goethe people, but an increasingly shocking light and sound came from the rift valley, urging them to speed up.

Then, they saw an unforgettable scene.

Along the way, they discovered more “holy artifact fragments”. Although they were dilapidated, every one of them had a terrifying energy fluctuation. This was a huge gain. It would definitely make the Wayne Wings return with a full load and make Master Rackles go crazy with joy. This made everyone happy and worried.

He was happy about this huge gain, but he was worried about… the Goethe people.

Without a doubt, the Goethe people had entered this place. They had thrown these priceless fragments of the holy artifact here. Either it was a conspiracy or a trap, or… there was something more valuable ahead.

They advanced cautiously.

Soon, the joy of obtaining the fragment of the holy artifact completely disappeared.

In its place was an endless shock.

They saw a scene they had never seen in their lives.

There were large and small screens that would glow and make sounds on their own. Faint images would also appear on the stone walls. There were various magic items that he did not recognize. These things transmitted sounds and images.

The lifelike images inside recorded stories that did not belong to this era.

They saw an unprecedented human world. The huge city was actually built of steel and crystals. It was even more boundless and magnificent than the glorious Twilight City.

Flying birds with iron wings flew in the sky, and long iron dragons ran on the land. They were magnificent and vast, shocking the elves. They were born from nature and were proud children of the forest. No matter what, they could not imagine that weak and humble humans could actually live in a steel forest.

This was definitely not the humans of this era. They were certain because the humans in the image spoke another language. Their world was extremely rich and densely populated, but it was not forever peaceful. Strange creatures from another world would invade their home. Visitors from outer space would descend with a bang. The enemy would either blot out the sky or be cruel and cunning, but humans could always win.

This was because they had powerful weapons that far surpassed crossbows and magic.

There were also powerful heroes whose combat strength was not inferior to legendary experts.

Armored warriors holding war hammers and summoning lightning, burly men in cloaks with extraordinary strength and burning gazes, steel giants with indomitable figures that far surpassed the Titan… There were countless of them. The light screen shone with the heroic bearing of their battle. Even if each hero only had a few seconds of images, it still made the elves leisurely fascinated. f𝗿𝗲e𝒘e𝚋ｎ૦𝘃𝙚𝑙.com

The world had reversed. When powerful enemies invaded, they could obtain victory every time, and their enemies were getting stronger and stronger.

The next scene horrified the elves and even… despaired.

They saw a huge ship made of steel soar into the sky. The size of a battleship was comparable to the combined size of all the Elven Navy ships. They saw countless battleships in the air moving in the endless dark universe. The endless starry sky that the Elven astronomers yearned for was the sea that humans rode.

The pillar of destruction whistled and flew. The human fleet fought the increasingly powerful enemies. They flew out of the vast stargate, and the rain of destruction was more beautiful than any scene. There were also figures of other living beings in the starry sky. Some were divine, some were cruel, but they were all-powerful.

Moreover… there was no place for the elves.

After the shock, it was horror, disbelief, jealousy, and anger.

Why could mere humans be so powerful

After seeing this shocking scene, no matter how arrogant the elves were, they would admit that the so-called illustrious contributions of the Twilight Dynasty and the so-called strength of the powerful country that suppressed the continent were all jokes not worth mentioning.

There was an even more fatal problem…

The Goethe people were here.

If this was the inheritance ruin of this civilization; if there were things left behind by this civilization… then how could they let the Goethe people obtain these things?!

They had to obtain the human power inheritance on the screen!

They could not let the humans of this era be as powerful as in the video!

Otherwise, the extermination of the elves would not be far away!

—Master Rackles, your premonition was indeed correct!

With this thought in mind, anxiety, jealousy, greed, and desire, the elves took off a small light screen and carried it with them. Then, they advanced into the rift valley as quickly as possible.

In the depths of the passageway rift valley, they encountered an ambush. It was a trap that fired a shocking attack. The elves were in a tense state and immediately fired an arrow to counterattack, but the arrow struck an abrupt stone wall that was circulating with magic runes.

After being struck by a large number of arrows, this stone wall shattered, revealing an even darker and deeper path.

The elves were already desperate.

They moved forward crazily.

Then, they encountered… a nightmare.

In front of him were not the ruins of the powerful human race, but an underground town. It was empty and empty with strange rocks. The town was situated on a cliff, and below it was the dark abyss. The demonic black light condensed into an invisible and material vast pool, and strange and terrifying black beasts continuously surged out.

They had fallen into a carefully woven trap.

At this moment, Sir Taize suddenly woke up.

He still remembered the sudden change in Captain Estes’s expression when he saw those black beasts. It was extreme fear and shock.

The captain shouted the name of this black beast.

Void Spirit.
